a friend of mine sent me this video last night, and the first thing i did was laugh...
then I thought, wait...it kinda looked like the cab of the truck got crushed, and had to go back and watch it again...
first reaction is to laugh your ass off, but then it might be a little morbid when you stop and think

It looks like the roof got the edge of the trucks roof, hopefully the driver was OK...

Ya, looks like the corner of the roof knicked the side of the cab. Probably walked away with barely a scratch. Funny nonetheless. Didn't seem like it took much to know this down, I've seen worse impacts and yet it still stayed up.

Looks like the driver wasn't seriously hurt.

Wow, that's pretty dumb. In the same breath, it didn't look like he hit it that hard, did it come down unusually easily?

Thats what i was wondering too, usually those campers come apart pretty easy so how hard could he have hit it?

That is all kinds of awsomeness, (since the driver is OK). Maybe he ment to so that he can bust open the ATMs to get the $$$.

I wonder if it was in Calgary due to the craftsmanship of the labourers.

I didn't laugh... I thought the guy was toast! But when I saw the "afters" I did chuckle and thank God that I come from a better gene pool than that guy.

The more I see it the more I think it's fake. The roof came down way to easily, and I can't find a legitimate news article about it.

Pretty convincing fake if so.

It did come down way too easy, but all it takes is a little shoddy craftsmanship and an idiot driver like this.

I mean, we see bridges collapse every so often, why is this so unbelievable?
